Does a snake die when its venom is removed?
No, I watched a TV show where they milked the snake to get its venom. The venom is used to make antivenom, which is used to help people who are bitten. The snakes were not harmed by the process. The snake will regenerate more venom later, but it will not be able to eat in the meantime as its means of catching prey have been removed.
